Nadaraya-Watson estimator for sensor fusion problems

Abstract

The classical Nadaraya-Watson estimator is shown to solve a generic sensor fusion problem where the underlying sensor error densities are not known but a sample is available. By employing Haar kernels this estimator is shown to yield finite sample guarantees and also to be efficiently computable. Two simulation examples, and a robotics example involving the detection of a door using arrays of ultrasonic and infrared sensors, are presented to illustrate the performance
